Review on Rest-Eazzzy Cat House, Outdoor Cat Bed, Weatherproof Cat Shelter For Outdoor Cats Dogs And Small Animals (Grey S) by Linda Braley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Finally a shelter my cat will go in

This wasn’t too hard to assemble. The zip on roof is a little awkward but took less than 5 minutes.We were adopted by a previously feral or abandoned cat. We have never had a cat before Cleo. She enjoys time inside our home but prefers to hangout in our backyard. Last winter she was an inside cat. We adopted a puppy in July and she doesn’t want to stay in the house even though she and the puppy tolerate each other. I have worried about how to keep her warm and out of the weather. I have purchased other shelters and tried to give her a bedroom in the house but she wanted nothing to do with other shelters and wants to eat inside and head back out.This shelter is awesome. She loves it. I think having two openings is key so she always has an escape route if needed even though that exposes her to a bit more of the cold. We placed an animal heating pad inside when it started getting below 40 outside with colder wind chills. We placed it up against a wall on our porch so it has a windbreak as it isn’t very heavy but with the heating pad I feel like it won’t blow away. I took the temperature inside the hut when the cat got off the heating pad and the pad reads about 80* so she seems to stay plenty warm. During the sunny days she prefers to layout in the sunshine but when it is overcast or cooler this is a life saver. It has given me peace of mind that she won’t suffer outside. And if we get too cold or snow, I plan on moving it all to my garage since she is very comfortable in it.Perfect solution for my picky cat.

Pros
  • Can be used as a temporary shelter for outdoor cats or dogs while transitioning to an indoor lifestyle
Cons
  • Not ideal for pets who suffer from anxiety or stress
